    Not sure why this didn't occur to me sooner. The service should run as you and not as jellyfin or root.

    Any particular reason you want Jellyfin's data to be in your home and not in the default location?
    Jellyfin 10.10.7 (Docker)
    Ubuntu 24.04.2 LTS w/HWE
    Intel i3 12100
    Intel Arc A380
    OS drive - SK Hynix P41 1TB
    Storage
        4x WD Red Pro 6TB CMR in RAIDZ1
